Two children under 2 and two adults were hospitalized after a crash in West End Monday afternoon, police said.

A Honda sedan and a Ford Explorer collided at West Liberty St. and Winchell Ave. around 3:30 p.m.

Two female adults were hospitalized, Cincinnati police Lt. Steve Saunders said. Both of the women were in the Honda with the two children, who were taken to Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.

The driver of the Honda was ejected from the car, police said. Saunders reported the driver is in fair condition at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. The children and the other woman have been treated and released, he said.

The male driver of the Ford suffered minor injuries, Saunders said. He was treated at the scene.

Both vehicles suffered serious front-end damage. The Ford left the road and came to rest on the sidewalk. The Honda stayed on the roadway.
